+1 on fixing in a 4.0.x. We need to make some tough decisions if we want "time based releases". We already dropped AutoScale and Brocade even though they were essentially code-complete for this reason. This is an issue that is of uncertain size (weeks at least) to fix. There is just too much uncertainty. Also it seems that folks want the latest version of OVM anyway, which would not be helped by fixing this in 4.0
We do need to make tough decisions for time-based releases, but we're not quite there yet.
IIRC one of the criteria for 4.0.0-incubating is that we'd support upgrades from prior releases of CloudStack[1] and AutoScale and Brocade were not in those releases - OVM was.
It might be easier for folks to make a decision if we had a clear timeline for a 4.0.x release with OVM support and some idea who's going to be picking that up. (e.g., something like "Edison will be working on this feature and we're expecting it to be in master within two weeks of shipping 4.0.0-incubating).
Holding the release up for an additional week (or longer) is not an attractive option, but neither is letting down a whole set of users who depend on OVM.
